CBS Sports CBB Insider Jon Rothstein tweeted UNCW SG C.J. Bryce told him he would be visiting USC tomorrow. He was at NC State this past weekend. Bryce is 6'5" and averaged 17.4 ppg and 5.4 rpg this season and was named All CAA. He would have to sit out next season with 2 years of eligibility remaining.

Interesting. The UNCW coach is now at NC State. That may, or may not, give them an edge. Bryce was a soph this past season, so year after next, he will be a junior. If he comes to USC, he would be in the class with Kotsar, Felder, and whoever remains from that class at that time. Looks like a good player.

Doubt we get him but would be nice pick up, he is one of the top guys on the transfer market because he could play for two years and is a legit scorer. The head coach at nc state and the chance to play in the acc might be too much to overcome though.

the fact we even have a chance at this kid makes me really happy with the direction of this program. two years ago, no way this kid gives us any chance

edit: if we had Gregg Marshall we would have had this kid long before the transfer window. loljk

If I'm not mistaken, Alstork is a grad transfer so he would be eligible to play right away whereas Bryce has to sit out a year so they wouldn't conflict each other.

They would conflict each other in terms of scholarship count. Bryce would be on scholarship during the season he sat out just like Holden was this past year so my guess is it's an either/or not an AND situation.

He was talking about their impact on number of available scholarships, since Bryce would still count against that even though he would have to sit out the year. If we add minaya and alstork, we need to free up two slots (for example Blanton and tut). Adding bryce would make another.

Yes, I was wondering about the scholarship numbers. If we take both then we are 3 over. Right now we are one over which can be solved by putting Blanton on a medical hardship. Another spot could be opened up if someone leaves the program and my guess is that would be Tut. Beyond that it gets complicated.

Announces this the same day that it's announced keita is leaving. Hmm.....

coincidence, maybe

NCState hired Bryce's coach at Wilmington, seems only logical that he would pick State.
Of course, you almost make the same argument with Alstork and all the positive comments he made about Frank and the final four.

I've figured that NCSU had an edge because of that and the opportunity to play in the ACC, so I hope that the timing is more than coincidence. At least we won't have long to wait.

Missing Alstork hurts more personlly due to the fact that he can play immediately. Holden will have to be ready this season and the young guys will have to step up and assist the veterans in replacing Dozier and Thornwell. Hoping we can land some good talent for 2018
